Hire a trainer!! I get, “I wouldn’t have come in if I didn’t have an appointment with you.” all of the time.

I agree! It is good to find ways to keep yourself motivated to continue exercising. Find an activity that you enjoy and you will be more likely to stick with it for the long term.

Yes, the hardest part is to get my butt started! My big tummy is my motivation to get myself work out!

Great list! It’s so true about just getting started. Once you start, the next time is so much easier, and so on.

I completely agree with setting up a consistent time. For me, morning works best.

I think making it a habit, music and having a partner will really make a difference for me. You are right about the hardest part being getting going.
